    ongoing genocide

    Uh… Why do y’all forget that there’s a ceasefire going on right now? There’s a ceasefire that Trump was at least part of achieving, so while Israel is still up to their normal levels of Apartheid, the capital Gaza genocide is over, or at least paused.

      The genocide is not over just because they paused killing in Gaza and restarted killing in the West Bank.

        By that definition Palestine has been under genocide for 50 years. Which, okay fair enough but that has nothing to do with the claim that Trump is worse than Biden for Palestine.

          Yeah, that’s right. Slower or faster, but always and inexorably genocide.

          Yes. 70+, to be more accurate.

      No. He had nothing to do with it, aside from promising he’d publicly give Bibi free reign if he won, which was better than not publicly giving Bibi free reign while still giving it to him.
